Taylor Hood


I am Taylor Hood. I have three dogs Sophie, Dixie and Trooper. My life consists of school, fencing and friends. Fencing has been a major part of my life since I started the summer before 7th grade. I spend approximately four days (14 hours a week) fencing. I will miss several days of school this year to go to tournaments in St. Louis, Louisville, Baltimore, Reno, Richmond and so forth. I spent a week of my summer at fencing camp from 9-5 every day. Then, the following week I went to Anaheim for fencing. I guess one could say reading horror/ murder investigation/ suspense books “geeks me out.” I honestly have gotten to the point where I can only read books that hold you on the edge the entire time. Hey, UK basketball “geeks me out.” I also enjoy needlepointing (yes I know grandma-like… oh well). I have done two key chains and am working on the picture below. This year I would like to receive straight A’s (maximum 2 B’s). I have an extremely long list of colleges I am considering. Some of which include Washington and Lee, Princeton, Brown, Notre Dame, Northwestern and Temple. Hmmm… what else…. Oh, if I could choose any superpower I would choose…. Flexibility/ the ability to stretch. I would want to be like the mom in the Incredibles. If I had the superpower I would be able to move quickly, squeeze through tight spaces, climb tall buildings and stretch to trip bad guys. My favorite site to visit would either be www.amazon.com or www.hulu.com (we don't have cable).  That’s me!
This is the needlepoint I am
currently working on and will
take me the rest of high school
 to complete. :)
